Indian IT firms ramp up AI adoption by 2027: Report

Business Dec 14, 2025

Indian enterprises are moving fast on artificial intelligence, with almost half already using Generative AI in real projects.
Still, about a quarter are just testing things out. Most are either just starting or somewhere in the middle.

What's holding them back?

Many firms struggle with messy data, old tech systems, and not enough skilled people to run AI smoothly.
Plus, most aren't spending much—less than a fifth of their IT budgets goes to AI—which makes it tough to scale up.

Why does this matter for business?

AI is already helping companies work smarter—think better IT support and faster app development—with some seeing noticeable profit boosts.
Experts say as more firms go big on AI by 2027, we'll see even bigger changes in how businesses grow and operate.
